Dinardo wasn’t fired after 98, didn’t play Notre Dame in the bowl following 2016.

Thanks. I edited it

Still have DiNardo fired after '98. He wasn't fired until near the end of '99.

DiNardo was fired, the last game against Arkansas, Hal Hunter was the coach, LSU won 35-10.

I guess I had forgot we were top five preseason in 2019. I would have guessed 10 or so.

Gerry was fired Sunday morning after a 20-7 loss to Houston Saturday night !
Oh and we were ranked #7 at the beginning of 1998 season out the gate and even were 3-0 to start then the wheels came off!!!!!!

Didn’t realize we were top 5 in 2019 either.
I remember being in Vegas for the first game and there wasn’t any buzz around the team leading up to it

I get that it was time for a transition, but Miles should not have been let go without your target already lined up. I say that as a business model, despite O catching lightning in a bottle in 2019. A good coach not only would have had that season (most likely), he would have followed with a couple top 10 seasons, not cratered.

That's because F King fricked up and didn't let him walk off a hero after the TAM game(when the fans, team and he expected as much). Our memories of Les would be grander if that would have been the case. He deserved that but even he couldn't see it. It happens. Like waiting too long to break up with a girl when you know it's headed for a disastrous ending that is terrible for both sides.

Off the top of my head You are missing 2012 (I believe we were top 3).
